Sample Uses
When you sell on-line, most payment gateways will send you payment notifications via email. Email2DB can take these emails, extract your customer and order information,
update your back-end systems and send a confirmation email or PDF receipt to the customer.
Most websites have forms that visitors can complete, such as, Information Request forms, subscription opt-in forms (and opt out), feedback forms, call back request forms etc. These forms can send an email to Email2DB for processing. The advantage
of this is that your back-end databases can be on completely separate network/server
than your actual website and email provides an inherent fail-over mechanism.
Email2DB can update any sort of database using fields parsed from the incoming email.
Email2DB is a very efficient 'auto responder'. It can take an incoming email and automatically respond to it, using rules that you create.
Multiple, custom auto-responses can be sent, and you can create conditions on each auto-response (eg, If customer is from USA send email 1, else send email 2). Email2DB can also schedule auto-responses
for future dates, allowing you to automatically send follow-up emails.
Email2DB can be used as a simple and efficient way of linking separate systems.
Integrating With Microsoft CRM
Email2DB can take incoming emails, extract data and automatically create
multiple entities in your CRM system.
Email2DB can be used to send SMS messages in response to incoming emails. For example,
you could have an out-of-hours response form on your website. Email2DB could take
the email from this form and send an SMS text message during certain hours.
Email2DB can monitor any web page and execute Triggers when the content of the page changes or if the site is down. You could have Email2DB send you an email or SMS
text message whenever a specific web site changes it's content. You could also get Email2DB to email or text you if your own web site is down.
You can use Email2DB to monitor your customer database. Whenever a new customer record is added, Email2DB could read the new record, extract the customers email address
and send the customer a welcome email.
Backing Up Emails
Email2DB can be used to backup incoming emails. You can save a full copy of each email into any sort of database.
The Enterprise Edition of Email2DB can act as a mail server in its own right.
